First of our fall breeding plans

I intend to pair our next two litters on approximately September 20th. We will have two seperate breeding pairs this time.

JM Nimue x RDPY Kerrigan
Black notch Capped/Patched Smoothcoat x Black Capped/Patched Smoothcoat

Expecting all smoothcoat dumbos. Purpose of the litter is to have the option of using another outcross in future breedings. We should see a lot of facial markings, headspots, and possibly even BEWs. They will likely be all black, but we may see some Russian blue. These will be a litter entirely of RDPY lineage and could be available to select breeders, but only with permission from Kat at RDPY.

Nimue is almost a year old and we are expecting a small litter. This will probably be a very friendly group of wheel enthusiasts!

----------
RRR Astrid x RDPY Vale of Avalon
American blue Bareback Rex x Triple Dilute Smoothcoat

Expecting 100% dumbo in rex and smoothcoats. Purpose of the litter is to outcross Astrid's bloodline and increase our chances of Russian Dove. We are expecting Russian blue, American blue, Russian Dove, and dilutes. Should be a colorful litter. We could see a wide range of markings including headspots and blazes!

We've waited til Astrid is older to help monitor the health of her line. She tends to carry a little extra weight, but has been healthy to date. Her mother Evolet had a difficult labor so we hope she and Nimue will conceive and deliver about the same time in case there is trouble. Astrid should have a small litter as well. We're excited to see what we get from this litter.
